• Feature in video content, presenting consumer tips, explainers and money-saving content in an engaging and accessible way.
• Host interviews with experts across areas such as energy, insurance, mortgages and personal finance.
• Manage community engagement and monitor audience growth and content performance.
• Keep up with social media trends and consumer conversations to identify relevant content opportunities.
